Help drivers navigate and discover new places with Google Maps

Make sure drivers are always on the fastest route with Google Maps. Trusted by billions globally, constantly updated and proven for accuracy and reliability. Google Maps lets drivers:

  • See real-time, continuous traffic updates, accident alerts, and automatic rerouting to save time and stay on schedule.
  • Easily search and find points of interest like gas stations, charging stations, and restaurants along their route.
  • Navigate while offline. Maps maintains navigation and core functionality even while offline or when a phone isn't connected to the vehicle.

Offer access to thousands of car-optimized apps with Google Play Store

Google Play provides access to thousands of third-party car-optimized apps from the car without needing a phone. With new apps added regularly, your infotainment system stays current with new apps.

With Google Play in the car, drivers can:

  • Instantly access to thousands of car-optimized apps and games directly from the car screen.
  • Trust that apps they download meet Google's strict safety and quality standards for the driving environment.
  • Download video streaming apps and games for parked entertainment.

Give drivers a smarter built-in AI assistant

Google Gemini enables drivers to get even more done in the car. Gemini continuously improves through automatic updates.
